In AND THEN THERE WAS US…

Brianna Heart has a six-year old daughter and a twelve-year plan to keep her life as simple as possible until Layla turns eighteen. That means swearing off relationships and the drama that goes along with them, working two jobs, and being the best mother she can be.

The last thing Capital Series Grand Prix racer Hugh Braden wants after dating media-hungry leggy models and money-hungry fan girls is a blind date. But how could he turn down a favor to one of his best friends? Hugh expected the date to go poorly, but he didn’t expect to be intensely attracted to the beautiful brown-eyed bartender who completely blows him off—and steals his every thought thereafter.

When Brianna’s perfectly orchestrated life turns upside down, Hugh is there to help, softening the turmoil, and maybe even rescuing her heart from the lonely place where it has been hiding. Can a man who doesn’t believe in fate and a woman who doesn’t believe in true love find happiness in each other’s arms forever?

Ratings and reviews

This is one of my favorite books in the Sweet with Heat stories. I loved it. I really felt as though Hugh and Brianna could feel the connection right away, because sometimes you just *know*. I loved how protective Brianna felt for Layla as well, but Hugh showed her what a good man is and how he treats them both is very swoon worthy. Brianna had a few issues to get over, but when a situation came up and Hugh proved himself to her she was able to deal with them, as well as see what kind of man he is. They both showed a lot of growth in a short time, especially from what we had seen of Hugh in the previous Braden books. I absolutely loved the ending, it was great to see the whole family together, and to get a peek at the Remingtons.

Ms. Cole has a way of giving you just what you want out of a love story. I felt that not only was this a beautiful love story for Hugh and Bree but a story of redemption in a way. Hugh wanted to redeem his love life and Bree need to learn it was okay to have a life for herself. I really enjoyed the dynamic between Hugh, Bree, and Layla. Hugh is just what we have come to expect from the men in Ms. Cole's world. I always enjoy getting to catch up with characters from past books, it's like catching up with old friends. I can't wait to see what Ms. Cole gives us next.

4.5 Stars I really enjoyed this book. I gobbled it right up. I loved Hugh. The man he wants to be for Bree and Layla warmed my heart. There were plenty of feels when it comes to this book. Hugh is so sweet Layla. It's one of my favorite parts of the book. This is my favorite book in the series. It's definitely a make you feel good story that you won't be able to put down. Bree and Hugh have great chemistry.I love the way Hugh makes Bree feel abut herself. The ending of this book is just so romantic and perfect. I couldn't have asked for it to put end any better. This is a must read book for sure!!!
